why Jollof Write as the name of the newsletter?

The name was coined from the popular African food, Jollof Rice. Unfortunately, it's the only dish I can make without inflicting food poisoning on myself or others. I needed something catchy, so I figured I’d get in my creative bag.

Plus, writing is like cooking words, so why hot not?

But for the good of both of us, take the time to painfully go through the stuff I write and see if it's a fit for you. If this means leaving potential subscribers on the table, I'm all for always leaving stuff on the table. I leave half-eaten pizza, unread emails, and my gym membership on the table all the time.

If what i write is not for you, no biggie. There's always another interesting writer to pick from. I'll do you one better. Here's a library of some of the finer writers with way better “about page” here 👉🏽 Cookout Library.
